China, Taiwan, and the United States all share a common interest in ensuring this week's California stopover by Taiwan's president gets the focus each thinks it deserves, but without setting off a new crisis.
Taiwanese President Tsai Ing-wen is due in Los Angeles on Wednesday when she will meet U.S. House of Representatives Speaker Kevin McCarthy, the first such meeting on U.S. soil.
McCarthy, as House speaker, is third in line to the U.S. leadership and he has said publicly that he does not rule out a future visit to Taiwan. There was a similar discussion for the California leg, according to a person familiar with the planning for the McCarthy meeting. Asked about the planning, a State Department spokesperson said Tsai's transit was "consistent with longstanding U.S. practice, consistent with the unofficial nature of our relations with Taiwan," and China should "not use it as a pretext to overreact."
